    I guess, nothing wrong to have less ping for wives? ;)

    No, but the bigfoot card is more aimed at gamers so that's what the features are designed for.

    I have bought a p505 with a 970M and a i7 4710HQ last November; it's been running great till now but I noticed that lately the CPU temperatures have gotten much higher than expected (the fact that it's so hot this season probably made it worse, room temperature is around 30-31 degrees). Strangely enough dota 2 is the game that pushes the CPU temperature the highest, peaking around 98°C; is it an expected behavior? How easy is it to repaste?

    Repasting is as simple as removing the bottom cover and removing the heatsink screws.

    Repasting is easy, as Meaker suggests. Thought I did a video on it, but I guess not. Guess I will have to. :)

    Not sure if it was P650SE though. I looked through all my P650SE videos and no repaste. I did W230SS and P750ZM and P770ZM but no P650SE.

    Since access is fairly easy then basically following a generic guide gets you there, clevo/sager have not made it difficult because they are reasonable.

    Thinking about ordering one, but my only reserve is the screen. Anyone have any feedback about the 15.6" FHD (16:9) Anti-Glare Matte-Type Sager IPS Screen (1920x1080) (LG Brand) that is an option from XoticPC. Thanks.

    The IPS 1080p displays have no major faults.

    Been a very popular screen. For the amount of them that are ordered there has not been any higher % of problems compared to any other computer part.

    Eurocom seems to mostly ship the AUO panel, while i Think the LG panel is also sold by others. I've not had any issues with the AUO, a perfectly acceptable screen.

    My only complaint about the screen is that there is noticeable ghosting present.

    IPS mobile displays will ghost a bit, it's just the technology really.

    Usually higher response times vs TN which is whats causing that.
